[proposal] Newbie-FAQ or Everything You Always Wanted To Ask About Ubuntu But Were Afraid To Ask

[Giovanni Sce]

Hi, I'm assuming you wanted to email the list...

I agree on your point of being able of easily printing
out a section of wiki. I really doubt that it is possible
to print a section comprised of different pages (that
could be a really useful plugin!), some have a nice
format for printing.
Definetly, I don't think we can/should care for "flashy",
text justified is out of HTML scope!
